Summary: | The main purpose of this study is to determine the ecological quality of Doamnei River. The present paper was developed on the basis of bibliography in connection with this subject and personal field research conducted during 2016 and 2017. The research objectives aimed at: identifying the structure of the benthic biocenoses in the monitoring points; establishing saprobity index for each species identified and including the monitoring sections into the appropriate saprobity class; determining the ecological quality of Doamnei River in the monitoring points according to the methodology established by the Framework Directive 2000/60 / EC. Following the zoobenthic fauna analysis and the samples taken from the three stations along Doamnei River we have identified 48 species from 7 genera belonging to 16 families from 6 orders. Bahna Rusului station has a high quality ecological condition and Valea Rea and Ciumeşti have a good quality ecological condition. |
